Answer:

20 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a rectangular deck is five times it's width if the decks perimeter is 24 feet what is the decks area

Step 1

We find the Length and Width of the deck

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

The length of a rectangular deck is five times it's width

W = Width

L = Length = 5W

P = 24 feet

Perimeter = 2(5W) + 2W

24 = 10W + 2W

24 = 12 W

W = 24/12

W = 2 feet

Solving for L

L = 5W

L = 5 × 2 feet

L = 10 feet

Step 2

We find the area of the deck

Area of the deck(Rectangle) = Length × Width

= 10 feet × 2 feet

= 20 square feet

-1 3/7 x (-3 2/3)=?

xxTIMURxx [149]

I was not sure if the x in your equation was a multiplication sign or a variable
6/7x
-1 multiplied by 3/7x times -2
And when you multiply two negatives it equals a posible so the -2 and -1 turn into a positive
